During this time, it is as important as ever that the community comes together to find ways to support each other. There are plenty of projects for volunteers to choose from to help local nonprofits, as nonprofits have been especially hard-hit by the current crisis. Projects range from cleaning up Four Mile Run to sending encouraging messages to Arlingtonians with mental health issues. Many projects can be done from the comfort of your own home. Arlington Chamber Volunteer Day will start with a virtual kickoff at 12:00 p.m. with County Board Chair, Matt de Ferranti, as the kickoff speaker. Following the kickoff, volunteers will complete the projects they selected between 1:00 - 4:00 p.m. The projects provided are in accordance with the CDC guidelines. REGISTER AS VOLUNTEER Chamber Encouragement for Direct Business Grant Program The Chamber encouraged Arlington County to establish a new direct financial grant program for local businesses with its coronavirus response funding. Such a program would build on the successful GRANT program last year. Businesses continue to cite access to capital for pandemic-response activities as their greatest need. Capital grants allow businesses to invest in what they individually need to retain or restore jobs, and maintain their businesses as Arlington works through the economic recovery from the pandemic.
